Wanamaker's Work.

John Wanamaker, of Phila del.
phia, the successful merchant and
faithful Christian, avails himself Of
all opportunities to do good. He
does not neglect the interests of his
employees. The following extract
from a letter addressed by him to
Miss Annie Mcdowell, secretary of
the insurance association of his EN-.
ployes, explains itself, and shows
the large-heartedness of this good
man:
II learn this is your birthday, and
as | want to establish a library for
the convenience of our women folk,
many of whom, I am sure, must
be great readers, l will make this
the time to do it. With your per.
mission it shall be known as the
Mcdowell Free Library, in honor
OF woman who has spent her life
as a worker for women. I wish you
would select the books, locate the
cases, make the rules, and put the
library in operation as quickly as
possible"

This discussion brought up the
subject of Scientific Instruction in

of the teachers in carrying out the

GEN. T. NJ. HARRIS,
DEAR SIR:-I write in reference
to our Amendment League, organ
lied at this place last night.
Our officers are as follows:
President, J. G. Fugate;
e-President, Rev. G. L. Car
dew;
Secretary, J. R. Davis;
Treasurer, J. H. O5sorne.
We adopted the following:

ing.
4. Appointment of Committees.
5. Address by President.
6. Other Addresses and Declama.
tions.
7. Readings and REGULATIONS.
s. General discussion.
9. Singing-Adjournment.
For the present the League will
meet every four weeks. Any sug-
gestions you can give US will be
thankfully received.
read your circular letter at the
meeting by way of explaining the
objects and Importance of the or
ganization.
The greatest difficulty here will
be in disabusing the minds Of
many of the fears that somehow it
is a partisan measured and calcu-
lated to rupture the Republican
party. Can you not come soon
and favor US with an address. It is
very important that our movement
here BIZ made a success as all eyes
are turned upon US, and upon our
success largely depends the fate of
the Amendment in Roane county.
We have here large church, a
good community and good roads.
Come, if possible, to our next meet
lug, VI S6uu US SoOu Spodhol'
Now is the time to strike. We are
80 miles from Charleston, 25 miles
from Spencer.
We organized with about twen-
ty-fve members.
Yours for the Amendment,
J. G. FUGATE.
NoTE.-Our readers will thank
Gen. Harris for promptly sending
us this encouraging letter for pub
LEGATION.
We advise our good friends in
Roane county to exercise Jobs pa
thence with the "fearful and afraid
politicians. Let them know that
our fight now is for the Ratifca'
ton of the Amendment and the
safety of our Homes from the muir
derous saloons.

AFRAID OF THE WO-
MEN.
The New Factor In Politics.

The most active people in fight.
ing for Prohibition in the South.
ern States are the women, the same
as it was in Kansas and Iowa. In
Texas they are particularly active
and are at the front there as lead
ers in the effort to engraft Prohibit
ton in the constitution of that
State.
1t will be remembered that when
the women first went into the tenn.
perance work in earnest the saloons
and all the friends of the saloons
tried to sheer them out of the field =,
and told them it was unwomanly,
and that they demeaned themselves
by taking part in politics.
But the women answered that
the saloon was the enemy of the
home, and they were the defenders
of the home, that they had fought
the great enemy in a social and
quiet way without accomplishing
its overthrow, and now they appeal
ed to the law and proposed to con-
quor by that means. The reason
for the success of Temperance in
the last few years, as compared
with thu centuries of failure before,
lies in that women have taken it
up and made it the cause of the
home, and themselves the leaders
of it.
AS women shall more and more
come into the work in other States,
as they are certain to do, the fight
tor Temperance will extend every
where and gradually be triumph
ant everywhere. For this is an
other irrepressible conflict. The
Austin Statesman, in Texas, Dem
ocratic and anti-Prohibition paper,
has the following paragraph trying
to scott the women out of the field.
"a political woman is an anoma-
ly to the South and the moment
you become one you lose that infu-
ence and sacredness that clusters
about your home and its duties.
This is political fight, ladies'. 1t
promises to be a bitter one. Keep
from it if you want to preserve
that hallowed respect in which you
are now held. A Southern man
will never respect woman politi-
cian."
This is pretty nearly the same
argument which has been used ev.
erywhere in behalf of the saloon to
try and drive away from the Tenn
perance cause its strongest element.
1t was used in Kansas, but did not
win. 1t is being used in Texas
and will not win there.
The women have taken up the
great work of Temperance, and
they are going to fight it through,
and all the saloon keepers between
the seas cannot drive them from
their chosen work. It ia a happy
indication for the success OF Pro-
hibition in Texas, to see the anti
prohibition papers becoming
alarmed at the strength the womsn
are developing in behalf of the re-
form.--E1chamge.
